CROSS COUNTRY
The boys' cross country team traveled to Michigan State University on Friday to compete in the Spartan Invitational.  They took 7th place out of over 20 teams.  They were led, as usual, by Michael Greeley who ran an amazing time of 10:26.  The time breaks the Bedford Junior High cross country record by over 20 seconds.  If you don't understand how fast that is, that's running a 5:13 mile then doing it again!  Now Michael wasn't alone in running great.  Our next 4 runners, Noah Scheffer, Jake Reaume, Alex Zittleman, and Camden Ball all ran their best times ever.  Other runners running best times were Cody Clark, Steven Kraine, Justin Bennett, Tyler German, and Anthony Mollusk.  Great job on an amazing performance guys.

There will be a home cross country race this Wednesday at Indian Creek.  Come on out and cheer on the boys and girls runners as they take on Whitmer, and other Toledo area schools.

The girls'cross country team did a fantastic job at MSU's Spartan Invitational this past Saturday.  Every girl on the team ran a personal best time for this season. Autumn Oxer came in 35th place overall with a time 13:17, Kaitlin Kochendoefer landed 78th place with time of 14:14, and Olivia Cook 99th place with a time of 14:44.  Caitlin Stieber, Alli Smith, Jillian Stutter, Maureen Lingle, Sadey Turner, and Moriah Torongeau were all in the top 50 percent.  The Lady Broncos ' next meet is this Wednesday at home at Indian Creek.
